Neil Nitin Mukesh in ‘Shortcut Romeo’ is in for a look
make-over of sorts. For the film, Neil who plays a tapori character who
wants to get rich quick. And to give this look the director felt he
needed to get rid of his classy look and bearing. And to get him into
the character Susi Ganesh suggested he grows his hair and develops a
little roadside aggressive body language.
Commenting on Neil’s look Susi Ganesh says, “We wanted Neil to have
a tapori look. His long hair gives us that. His character not only
demands tapori but a rich man, for that also this long hair will help.”
When asked if it was difficult to convince Neil for this look, Susi
promptly says, “I wasn’t difficult because when saw my original film, he
loved the long hair look. I wanted to do this because Neil has never
tried this look on him.
Neil stylist Vikram Pharmar had to work a lot on his hair to get
the apt look. He says, “Initially we tried to test with wig but after
seeing the script and action sequences, Neil decided to grow his hair
and have an original. I got a brief from the director that he wanted a
very down market guy look on Neil but later when he has money and wealth
he has a clean shaven look which is more corporate.”
Vikram concludes, “The most appealing this about Neil’s look is
that he has never looked this handsome and cruel in a same film. This is
very different and stylish look.”
His co-star Ameesha Patel feels it’s a difficult task to make Neil
look like a tapori. Ameesha explains, “It's difficult to make Neil look
like a tapori because his face is like a foreigner. His blonde hair and
fair complexion looks very rich and classy. I have always met him during
parties, in which he looks elegant in a suit or a tuxedo. But when I
saw him in the tapori look I was completely impressed as he was carrying
it really well.”
'Shortcut Romeo' is a remake of Susi Ganesh's super hit Tamil film
'Thiruttu Payale'. 'Shortcut Romeo' will release on 21st June, 2013.
